Intellivance seeks to share our new learning language that provides opportunity and empowers those who struggle to learn. We aim to create an education revolution by helping all learners gain and organize knowledge through multi-sensory experiences. We aspire to disrupt the current paradigms of learning and teaching by providing access to multiple literacies all at once.
Our values are the foundational pieces of our company. They are the lens through which we evaluate our business decisions and are integral to our success. At Intellivance we want to:
And ultimately, create an education revolution!
We developed our intellectual property to take advantage of human evolutionary adaptations. One that takes advantage of how we’ve evolved to learn. Our system provides a holistic and accessible approach to learning never before seen. We have created an entirely new language of everything and in doing so, an education revolution. At the core of this language, you’ll find prime number math, music and multi-sensory arts. You can read more about the science behind Intellivance here.
Intellivance’s revolutionary intellectual property (IP) provides opportunity and empowers those at a disadvantage. Our technologies and methodologies meet individuals where they are (cognitively, physically, and socially) to help them develop skills and promote self-efficacy. Intellivance has adopted a “fourth sector” organization model. We strive to be a profitable business that integrates social purpose, an approach we call “philanprofitable”.
Sloping curbs were initially designed to make sidewalks more accessible for those with a physical disability, but quickly provided benefit for everyone. When assistive technology becomes sufficiently ubiquitous and widely used, it is no longer considered assistive technology. It simply becomes “technology”. Just as “curb cuts” were developed as an assistive technology for those with a disability, Intellivance was designed to create an education revolution. We provide opportunity and empower to those at a disadvantage to live a full and rewarding life of purpose.
